GoToMeeting and the other apps in the suite – GoToWebinar, GoToTraining and OpenVoice – are popular tools for online conferencing. Whether it’s a business call with prospects or a webinar for your potential audience, things can easily get out of hand.

Many users complain about audio and video issues during conferences, not to mention connection drops. These most often relate to connectivity and Internet speed issues.

The reason for your GoToMeeting issues is most likely a poor connection to the Internet. So, solving the problem means getting a fast, stable and secure connection. Read below how to get that for you and your team members.

Leaving aside the potential service outages, the most common cause why you get GoToMeeting issues is actually the Internet you’re using. When you have a slow or unreliable Internet connection, your GoToMeeting isn’t able to work properly. Sometimes, you may not even realize that you have a connectivity issue until you try and use the service. And it’s most annoying when it happens during an important business call.

Depending on the active features, GoToMeeting uses a lot of bandwidth, especially for video calls. Your device is sending a complex set of data packets to the device of the person you are trying to talk to, their device is sending packets of data to you.

If your Wi-Fi connection has a momentary blip or your cellular connection fluctuates, some of the flow of those packets gets interrupted. It can take a few moments for the data to catch up.

This results in GoToMeeting conferences where the audio cuts in and out, where the video lags, and where the audio and video don’t sync properly. It can also lead to GoToMeeting dropped calls.

As mentioned above, GoToMeeting will perform as good as your Internet can perform. At this time, whether you’re using a laptop, a desktop computer or a mobile device, it only uses one connection at a time. Even though you may be connected to both WiFi and cellular data on your smartphone, it’ll use only one of them. So, the solution for fast, reliable and secure Internet is simple: use a secure channel bonding service for your organization, like Speedify for Teams.
